Videowall

This is a Qt based video wall player. It can play an arbitrary number of movies at the same time in a user customizable configuration.

Playback features include:

Select loop, step forward, or random videos from a library
Customize volume and playback speed for each video
Play, Pause, Mute the whole wall
Keyboard control for a primary video
Save wall layouts and automatic recovery of last layout
Lock the layout to prevent accidental changes during playback
Lots of options for customizing operation

Requirements

Python 3.9+
PySide6

Use

Click a player to show the control UI.

Along the top is the list of movies found in the movie folder. You can type to filter the list. If you type multiple words separated by whitespace, it will find items with all words anywhere in the name.

Buttons:

⨉ Close the player
| Split the player row horizontally
— Split the player column vertically
➘ Swap two players
⛶ Toggle scaling to fit inside or outside the player area
↻ At the end, loop the current video
⇥ At the end, play the next video in the list
? At the end, play a random video from the list
⚐ This player is controlled by the keyboard/menu playback options
⋘ Jog this player backward
⋙ Jog this player forward
★ Perform the end operation immediately

The top left slider controls playback speed (0% - 200%).

The bottom left slider controls the volume (0% - 100%).

The bottom slider will keep up with your position in the movie and allow you to scrub to any other position. The time on the left is the elapsed time, and the on the right is the remaining or total time (see below for option to configure which).

Configuration

Currently, you must create a configuration file manually. That file must be called videowall_settings.json in your home folder. The file content is a JSON object with zero or more of the following values:

Option	Type	Default	Use
`always_on_top`	`bool`	`True`	The player window will always float above normal windows, even if the application is not active.
`auto_update_layout`	`bool`	`True`	When enabled, the open layout will be updated with any changes during the playback session when the layout is changed or the window is closed.
`default_volume`	`float`	`1.0`	(Range `0.0` - `1.0`) The volume to use when making a new player.
`hide_mouse_delay`	`float`	`3.0`	Seconds to wait before hiding the mouse pointer while playing
`jog_interval`	`int`	`10000`	The number of milliseconds to move with the "jog" operation.
`layout_folder`	`Path`		The path where the layouts are stored
`lock_titlebar`	`bool`	`False`	When `False`, locking the layout hides the window titlebar for a cleaner look. When `True`, the titlebar remains visible while locked. Unlocking always restores the titlebar.
`movie_folder`	`Path`		The path where the movies are stored
`open_last_on_startup`	`bool`	`True`	When enabled, the last layout is loaded at startup
`play_audio`	`bool`	`True`	Disable to completely disable all audio playback and control
`pre_roll`	`int`	`2000`	The number of milliseconds to rewind when loading a layout
`remaining_time`	`bool`	`True`	When enabled, show remaining time instead of total time
`restore_window_state`	`bool`	`True`	When enabled, the window state is restored when loading a layout
`sparse_spec`	`bool`	`True`	When enabled, the spec file will only include settings not at the current default. When disabled, all playback settings are always saved.
`splitter_handle_width`	`int`	`5`	Width in pixels of the dividers between players. Set to `0` for no gap. When the layout is locked this is overridden to `0` automatically.
